O R D E R

PER CURIAM

Appellant's brief was originally due June 3, 2004. On October 1, 2004, after counsel failed to meet two extended deadlines, the Court ordered counsel, Mr. David S. Barron, to tender the brief for filing no later than October 15, 2004. Counsel did not comply with this order and the brief has not been received.

Barron was appointed to this appeal by the district court. That court is ordered to conduct a hearing to determine whether counsel has abandoned the appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(2). The court shall make appropriate findings and recommendations. If Barron is not prepared to prosecute this appeal in a timely fashion, the court shall appoint substitute counsel who will effectively represent appellant on appeal. A record from this hearing, including copies of all findings and orders and a transcription of the court reporter's notes, shall be forwarded to the Clerk of this Court for filing as a supplemental record no later than November 29, 2004. Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(3).

It is ordered November 9, 2004.
